I would never live in anything I design. Life and art are different. My life is very precious to me - my art is precious to me. I love designing things for other people, but I don't like designing things for myself.

Peter Eisenman 23 quotes

I am very different as a parent to new kids. My work changed from being rooted in the sky to being rooted in the earth.

Architecture is definitely a political act.

When looking at Germans, I have never felt a sense that they are guilty. I have encountered anti-Semitism in the United States as well.

If you want to show a picture, just show it - don't spend too much time arranging it.

Peter Eisenman 23 quotes

Endings are like, I always say, like a women's pregnancy. When she has a child, she is happy to have the child, but there is a thing called postpartum depression, that is that she is no longer carrying the baby.

The architecture we remember is that which never consoles or comforts us.

Stop making me feel good. If you are anti-Semitic, fine. If you don't like me personally, fine. But deal with me as an individual, not as a Jew.

I am not a finisher, I am a starter. And I am always thinking, what is the next project.

I didn't know I was Jewish until I encountered anti-Semitism at the age of 10, when my best friend told me I couldn't come to their house because I was a Jew.

Conservation destroys the present. If we are only busy preserving the past, we are not living in the present and unable to look forward. I am against conservation. We should let young people move forward, whether we agree with them or not. We should let new things happen.

The guy who sits in front of the TV set with headphones on has lost the capacity to react to the tactile environment.

I am immersed in architecture all day, working in my office or teaching.

Peter Eisenman 23 quotes

I use the NordicTrack every other day for 20 minutes. I don't listen to music or watch TV while I do it. I count to myself. I count to 25; I count to 25 backwards, that sort of thing.

In New York, a Jew is a Jew, an Italian is an Italian, a Muslim is a Muslim: Nobody's going out of his way to treat you in a special way.

I'm not a fashion architect. ...

I'm not a fashion architect. I don't dress in Ralph Lauren and Gucci. When I buy a suit, I buy it at J. Press. I have a blue blazer that I wear 80 percent of the time.

I don't design houses with the nuclear family idea because I don't believe in it as a concept.

I really don't even think of myself as being Jewish except when I'm in Germany.

There's no such thing as an absolute openness. Openness is relative, I think, in all societies.

I truly believe that the great heroes that create the history of architecture are people who take risks and write to tell about it.
